My desk is a mess

My husband made it for himself 10+ years ago when we shared this room as a home office (when neither of us worked from home). He made it specifically to be as long as it could be in this room—the desk is 8 feet long.

And he made it deep so he would have space for things between his monitor and keyboard (this was before super thin monitors were the norm)—it’s 3 feet deep.

So, as you can imagine, there’s a lot of space for paper to accumulate.

And it gives me space to leave a few things on my desk that I might not otherwise (pictures and books).
